Cleopatra

Cleopatra contributed very little to Egyptian society, but remember she was only a minor queen, and her attention was on holding on to the throne, rather than humanitarian affairs. About the only thing positive that she did for the country, or for society, is the confiscating of all books for the library at Alexandria. However only a limited number of people benefited by this as the library was used by scholars and the intellectuals of the day, not by society in general.

It is possible, but historians don't even know where her body is located or how she really died. The story we know of her comes from the Roman political spin of the time and may not be true or only partly true. So, this question can not be answered factually.

She ruled from 51 BCE to 30 BCE,when she committed suicide after Octavian conquered Egypt.

Cleopatra was the last Pharaoh of Egypt but she actually wasn't Egyptian. One of her direct ancestors was Alexander the Great and he invaded Egypt and declared himself king or 'Pharaoh' but was not Egyptian but Greek, so Cleopatra VII was actually Greek with a little bit of Egyptian blood from past Egyptians married into the Ptolemy royal family.

Her cause of death is disputed among historians but a popular answer (it is popular because it is dramatic, semi-believable and LOTS of movies and books about Cleopatra VII use that) is that a handmaiden brought a bowl of figs to her and in that bowl of figs was a poisonous snake which she allowed to bite her on the breast so she wouldn't be captured by Octavian and brought back to Rome in chains and humiliated in public as a prisoner of war.

She decided to commit suicide because her second lover/husband and father of three of her four children, Mark Antony, stabbed himself with a sword believing Cleopatra VII was dead (not true) and he died in Cleopatra VII's arms. Their palace was in the middle of being seiged by the Roman leader and general, Octavian. Octavian and his army easily defeated the small Egyptian forces and after Antony kiled himself she locked herself in her treasury room (more like palace because the Egyptians were very rich) and threatened to burn it, with herself in it, to the ground if the Romans didst leave, they didn't leave.

Octavian finally gained access to the treasury room and found Cleopatra VII and two handmaidens, dead.

There were no advances of any consequence during Cleopatra's reign. It was stagnant.. The two things that could loosely be considered advancements, were the addition of territory in exchange for her support of Antony's war and her enlargement of the library at Alexandria. Her additional territory was soon lost. The books that were added to the library were a gift from Antony from the library at Pergamum.
